DRAM Accountability
Our Goal
Use National Disability Rights Awareness Month as an opportunity to review and assess progress on disability-rights commitments, raise awareness of gaps between policy and lived experience, and promote greater accountability for implementation.
Why This Matters
Disability-rights commitments must result in meaningful implementation.
National Disability Rights Awareness Month is an opportunity to examine progress, identify gaps, and ask whether public commitments are changing the lived experience of persons with disabilities.
Our Work in This Area
DSD Provincial Disability Forum
The Network participates in the Department of Social Development's Provincial Disability Forum to raise systemic concerns and contribute disability-sector perspectives throughout the year.
During DRAM, our work may include public communication, social media campaigns, advocacy, awareness-raising, and participation in celebratory events.
The emphasis is on meaningful impact and accountability, not awareness for its own sake.
